Il pleut depuis ce matin



Adorable and bizarre with a fairy-tale voice - just the way I like my music! Behold Emilie Simon, one of the cutest things to come out of France. All of her songs serve as glimpses into her unfathomable imagination, teetering between eerily haunting and whimsically childlike melodies which stick to your memory like peanut butter. Her covers of Iggy Pop's "I Wanna Be Your Dog" and Nirvana's "Come As You Are" completely blow me away.



Have yourself a listen to a few of my favorites off her US debut album, the Flower Book. Not a Francophile? Never fear, for Emilie sings in both English and French.
